About the Taj Mahal
The Mughal emperor Shah Jahan built the Taj Mahal in Agra as a tomb for his wife Mumtaz Mahal. The white marble mausoleum was finished in the 1640s and is a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
What the model includes
The square plinth, the mausoleum with its chamfered corners and arched portals, the onion dome on its drum, four domed chhatris and the four minarets.
It is built from simple closed solids, so it slices cleanly and stands flat. In the download window you can set the height from 30 to 250 mm and add a base plate with the name in raised letters. The mesh has about 5,120 triangles, small enough to open in any slicer.
Print the Taj Mahal on its real terrain
Map data stores most buildings as a flat outline with a height, so the Taj Mahal would normally print as a plain block. In TerraPrinter, this model takes its place automatically. It is turned to match the outline in the map data and stands on the real elevation, with the streets, water and buildings around it.

Questions
Is the Taj Mahal 3D model free?
Yes. You can download the Taj Mahal as an STL or 3MF for free, without an account, and print it as many times as you like.
What size should I print the Taj Mahal?
At the default height of 120 mm it measures 155 × 155 × 120 mm. Pick any height from 30 to 250 mm before downloading. Thin parts like spires and antennas print better at 100 mm and up on a 0.4 mm nozzle.
Do I need supports?
No. The model stands flat on its base and prints upright without supports.
Can I print the Taj Mahal with the city around it?
Yes. "Print on its terrain" opens TerraPrinter with the area around the Taj Mahal selected. When you generate the model, this landmark replaces the plain block from the map data and stands on the real terrain with the surrounding streets and buildings.
